Today, we are releasing the first beta release of PowerDNS Authoritative
Server version 5.0.0. As you may remember from the 5.0.0-alpha1
announcement, the main new feature of this release is the bind-style
``views'' feature.
However, since the 5.0.0-alpha1 release, we have also worked on a few
more bug fixes and improvements, especially in the LMDB backend. As a
result of this, the LMDB backend now supports RFC2136 (dynamic update)
operation, which makes this beta release the ideal candidate for testing
on the beach while on vacation.
A detailed list of changes can be found in the [1]changelog.
Please make sure to read the [2]Upgrade Notes before upgrading.
The [3]tarball and its [4]signature are available at
[5]downloads.powerdns.com. Packages for various distributions are
available from [6]repo.powerdns.com.
We are looking forward to your feedback on this beta release. Please
send us all feedback and issues you might have via the [7]mailing list,
or in case of a bug, via [8]GitHub.
Note that per our [9]End of life policy, the release of the final 5.0.0
version will mark the end of support for version 4.7.
